Hey Dolls! I’m back this week with a killer guide starring 8 inexpensive ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s 1st February, which officially makes it the “month of love”. Every month should be the month of love if you ask me but we know this month marks some tale of historic events or something like that. Nonetheless, it’s a beautiful time to show love and the message shouldn’t be ignored. I previously talked about theSingle Babe’s guide to Valentine’s but now I suppose this one is more targeted to couples.

Honestly, this is just another month so to heck with all the over-marketed tricks to make us spend more money, I mean this may just be the singleton in me, but there’s no rule saying you can’t love and be loved on a budget? Am I right?

Okay, so since we all established love shouldn’t have a cost let’s dive into some rad and INEXPENSIVE ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day!

1. I Wrote This For You…

I think the most romantic thing, is genuinely hearing or in this case reading all of the sweet nothings and somethings when someone professes their love to you. So this Valentine’s how about you draft yourself a letter addressed to that special someone and just pour your heart out. If you want to step it up a notch you could do a letter for every day leading up to the big V-day. Maybe even splash your fave scent on the paper to remind them of you…(lol not advised if the person has sinuses, you and your letter may be kicked out)

2. Filled With Love…

If writing a letter may be too much for you, you can take a twist to myDIY positivity jar. In that post I took small slips of paper and scribbled beautiful messages to read to myself, then I dropped them in a glass jar and opened one almost every morning. Instead of this, you can scribble (obviously, in your sexiest handwriting tehe) love messages to your SO and drop them in a balloon. With that you can create a bouquet of balloons, each filled with a note for your babe to burst every morning leading up to V-Day!

3. Have a Movie Marathon!

If you and your love ones are like me and live for watching cool flicks, a marathon may be just what you need. There’s Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Showtime and even free streaming sites. You guys can get all snug with some wine and more wine of course, get giggly and enjoy each other’s company with your fave movies. This can be done as a couple are with your besties *Yayyy*

4. Valentine’s Scavenger Hunt?

OK, so imagine leaving cute little clues for your other half based on facts you know about each other and things you guys enjoy or moments shared. I think that’s super cute! So all you guys need to do is come up with a set of love clues to give each other and the first person to find the other’s hidden item(s) win. Not only is it fun but you get to feel all loved up doing it!

5. Fridges aren’t just for chores!

If you guys share a living space, more than likely there’s a fridge and at some point either of you MUST (cause food is the real babe) go in it. Leave little sticky notes on the fridge, making sure they’re in obvious spots to be seen, with heartfelt compliments. That’s a cute way to get some attention or maybe some extra TLC

6. Breakfast in Bed Anyone?

Do I even have to describe this one? I think not! Just get up earlier than your lover and prep some goodies, add them to a tray, get your sexy on and strut into that bedroom with ya love…Talk about a full course meal! *smirk*

7. Make Little Love Coupons

Lol, I know this sounds cheesy but it can be the cutest thing ever! Each coupon is redeemable for as long as you want it and can be cashed in whenever you allow it. It’s okay to be cheesy around this time of year, lol I pretty much think it’s the head time it’s encouraged. Get creative and feisty let your mate redeem some extra loving!

8. Get Office Sex-y

Ahaha! I know you dolls know it’s about to get risque…but honestly, if you’re both grown and consenting, maybe just show up to their office (please let it be a private office lol) and tease them a bit in some sexy lingerie! PS terms and conditions may apply, this can lead to way more than teasing so please be advised…

Well folks that’s it for today’s “Inexpensive Ways to Celebrate Valentine’s Day“, I hope you loved this segment. For the rest of the month I’ll be doing posts based on love I suppose lol. Next time may or may not be a lingerie edition or gifts for yourself. Don’t forget if you liked this post please show me with a little tap of the “like” button or comment maybe. Also subscribe for more doll time and I promise you won’t regret it.

I’ve actually got a similar post scheduled for next week! I don’t really do Valentine’s Day that much but I think these can apply to whenever you want to treat your other half or do something nice for them. It doesn’t have to be a lot of money! I’ve always loved the coupon idea – I did that for my boyfriend a few years ago and included a whole lot of different things like, “your choice of movie”, “your choice of takeaway”, “20 minute massage” etc 🙂 xxx

Love these ideas, perfect for saving money but still showing some much needed affection on V day!
The fridge notes idea is so sweet, I’ll definitely be stealing that and seeing how my man takes to it 😉
Thanks for sharing, Lena!

Haha this is such a super cute post! Me and my partner never go all out on Valentines, we always just make gifts so they’re more sentimental and we don’t end up buying the overpriced junk from the card shops 🙂 LOVE the idea of the scavenger hunt, and the office thing, although my partner works in a pub so not sure how that’d work… HA!

Great post! It can be quite tricky to think of ideas to get my boyfriend for Valentine’s day, so these posts are always so useful! I love the idea of the DIY positivity jar, and making it into love messages for your SO. That is super cute – it makes it so much more special 🙂

Completely love these! This year we Rw keeping it small and intimate so I’ve already got a letter sorted and I’m planning on a home cooked meal. Love the idea of a scavenger hunt! That would be so fun.

This is an amazing list! Valentine’s Day or the month of Feb often becomes one of those highly spent on months and this list gives some great inexpensive ideas. I love love love movie marathons and who doesn’t like a breakfast in bed?? 😀

I love the breakfast in bed idea and movie marathon! I’m always up for a cozy movie night in hahah!
These are great ways to spent Valentines Day especially for those who like me don’t like to go all but still want to show their love! ☺️💗

I loved this! It was very creative definitely things you can do all year round to spice things up a bit and not just on Valentine’s day. I’ve done the coupon thing before like IOU one back massage etc or leave little positive notes in secret places like a dressing gown pocket haha.
Love your blog! Xx

If they really love us, they wouldn’t mind not spending a lot of money on them. After all, it’s the thoughts that count. So, these are all great ideas and don’t all guys love movie marathon and lazy-ing around on the couch? Aha. Great post 🙂 x

The relationship me is going crazy about office sex-y, *wink wink*, but baby girl is single this year so me and my friends have been having movie marathons since the beginning of this week in the spirit of today (you’re in my head and you read my mind babe). Happy Valentines Babe.
